The struggle between [[Naruto]] and [[Sora]] continues. [[Asuma]] and [[Kazuma]] fight. [[Sai]] arrives, having snuck out of hospital, and binds Kazuma with an ink snake. Kazuma breaks out of Sai's technique and charges Asuma, but is killed. Naruto eventually reaches Sora, who manages to release the Nine-Tails' chakra. However the Nine-Tails' chakra that is released begins to become a miniature Nine-Tails. This provokes Tsunade to head out to engage the beast. It soon became clear that the miniature Nine-Tails could not form without a human host so it dissipated. Sora then leaves the village to travel the world. Asuma and [[Shikamaru]] play shogi and discuss who the king of [[Konoha]] is. Elsewhere, two [[Akatsuki]] members, [[Hidan]] and [[Kakuzu]], appear chasing the [[Two-Tails]]' [[Yugito Nii|jinchūriki]].
